Manager info

Year Purchased: 2007

About: I am a 31 year old man who loves the outdoors. My passions are hunting, fishing, lifting weights and fire arms; guns. I love to ride my Harley Davidson 48 motorcycle When I was at Bayfield High School I excelled in drawing winning various awards.

Why Durango, CO, USA: I grew up in Bayfield, CO and learned the trade of operating heavy equipment. It paid me well and I purchased this condo. The condo is in the perfect location; park your car in the space #202 within the parking garage, and walk or take the Red Trolly to where you want to go. Spend your gas savings on dinner out or ski for the weekend!

The Unique Benefits at this Condo: The condo is perfect for a parent visiting their child in college at Fort Lewis College to stay without intruding on their space. It is ideal for a skiing couple(s) and hunters wanting to sleep in a comfortable king size bed, and be able to cook their meal inside the condo. It is ideal to park your car and be able to walk downtown. I am two blocks to Cuckoos Chicken House and two blocks from the Ore House Steak House! The movie theater is four blocks, all within walking distance.
